Editor's Notes
- The responses I got made it clear that most people are familiar and experienced in Blended Learning.Therefore I just wanted to present a few slides that level set on what Blended Learning is, and the elements of a blendLets spend most of our time can be spent exploring how we can promote BL at your organization , by addressing obstacles and presenting motivators I am coming from a mindset that we not course order takers, we are consultants that are here to provide our clients with the best learning solution.If this is the current situation, perhaps that can be the subject of another meeting. ASK: Does anybody have anything to add about what we should be talking about.
- Like any term Blended Learning means different things to different peopleThe way I think about Blended Learning isn't some ingredients you put in a blended, one element from Column A: ILT, another from online: A web based training module, its more of a philosophy of learning than that. Its no longer, one size fits all.It’s a lot about getting out of the box, and looking at how different delivery methods, instructional modalities and extending learning to the job can make learning more targeted and more effective.ASK: Does this definition jive with your understanding? How would you describe it?
- This slide provides the spectrum (not complete) of different elements that can go into a blended learning course or curriculumLets look at them category by category. ASK: Does anyone have any experience thyour organization want to share in Web based Learning (besides Web based learning)? What about virtual classrooms? Online and Just in Time Reference? Online communities and networks? Offline Assignments?So, we have a lot of experience in different blended elements that we can bring to the table?
- Its always best when you have a strategy in place for Blended Learning, like IBM’s shown here.This helps client learning professionals think about/categorize the role that different types of learning elements or objects can play for:the organization at large for a curriculumfor specific learning solutionsState: This is just one way of creating a blended learning architecture
- So what’s stopping your organization from adopting blended learning?Is it just ignorance, force of habit or something else?I haven't been here long enough to know, but here are some ideas?ASK: What do you think?
- ASK: What could Blended Learning provide your organization, that IL alone cant?ASK: So, based on what we know about and its business and learning requirements, how can BL facilitate learning and job performance?
- Here are some of my ideas that I wanted to ask if thyour organization are worth exploring Are there incentives (ideas we can sell) that would get stakeholders excited about branching out into Blended Learning? Think about how collaboration outside of the classroom can improve learning and job performance Is there online collaboration and mobile initiatives being promoted internally that we match up well with Blended Learning? A proof of concept of BL, what would it look like? What if we learned with the business was doing with BL? If we knew what blended learning thyour organization were doing, we could piggyback on that.
